Ed Brown Special Forces Battle Bronze with Trijicon night sights

[Rob!]

Wow! Ordered it Thursday afternoon and it was at the post office here in small town Alberta on Monday morning. Kudos to Wanstalls and to the CFO!



Looks awesome - tight and slick to cycle and the trigger is at 3 pounds 12.x ounces all day long long with amazing regularity. Waiting for reg papers so I can take it to the range. Ed Brown says it's capable of the best accuracy modern ammunition can provide - about 1.5" at 50 yards. Anyone care to loan out a ransom rest? There's no way we'll ever know in my hands.

For now, dry fire and fondling.

Rob!

I've heard too much fondling leads to dry fires.

I can usually manage 50" at 1.5 yards.

Usually.

There might be night sights but where do you mount a light to see what your aiming at?

In your hand where it should be.

That's a fair question ILLWILL. I did consider it but passed for two reasons. First, I'm enough of a traditionalist that I just just didn't like the look as much as what I got. Second - and more important I think is safety. Using the muzzle of your gun to identify a target is like using your scope on a hunting rifle to identify a target. Both are dangerous.

While I rarely shoot in reduced light, these sights combine high vis dots centered by tritium. Real easy to pick up under any conditions.
